Wonderful weather

Hello girls! Hope your having a wonderful day so far. It is rather warm today. Which is good but I need to go out and enjoy it..... something I'm not good at doing. There's always everything to do. But I should slide on my mud boots, because It is veryyyyy muddy out there, and enjoy the wonderful air. and maybe even take some pictures!!! *Squeals* :D

My brothers are on our roof right now walking around. They are fixing our siding which keeps coming off on windy days But it just sounds funny to hear there feet on the ceiling!....."could that be Santa?!!" Jk totally to late! =P

Just a thought and a reminder! :)

                                    Well I'm off to eat lunch. Have a lovely day ladies! :)

Praise to our King!

Today is the day that the Lord as made! So lets praise Him. Thank You Lord for how good you are! I praise You Lord because you never leave. I love you Lord!

I'm very thankful for church and that i was able to go this morning! I enjoyed being with my sisters and brothers in christ. Hope that you are having a good sunday! Be blessed! :)

P.s. i went sledding friday night and yesterday so i am really really really sore! Haha. How did you spend your weekend? Have you gone sledding?

~Love,

Snow, snow, snow!!

Lately we have been getting dumped on with snow. A wonderful thing in my option. It's so wonderful to watch the snowflakes just fall to the white covered ground. So beautiful is that white world were everything is a picture just waiting to be captured.Unfortunately my camera hasn't been the one capturing the beautiful white scenes. Something I've been wanting to do before it all melts away. Along with playing in the snow. Having snow ball fights, which I stink at making snow balls. and the best of all GO SLEDDING!!! Sorry just had to get that off my chest! ;)

But I was wondering do any of you photographers have any tips for taking pictures in the snow? I have a canon point and shoot SX30 IS. (his name is Edward after Edward
 Ferris from Sense and Sensibility)  I'd love to hear your advise!

If you are in one of those places that is also getting dumped with snow stay warm! An enjoy the beautiful scenes.

Love,
Amber :)

Musical Mondays

Here is a song reminding us of what Jesus did for us on the cross. All His scars that should have been ours. All His pain that belonged to us. He took it all for us. Because He loves us. I loooooooove this song! Very good message!

Hope you enjoy it too!
Your sister in Christ,
Amber :)

Musical Mondays

 Today's song for Musical Mondays is Whom Shall I Fear [God of Angel Armies]  by Chris Tomlin. It's his newest song. 
This song is about God and who He is. How God is always with us, He goes before us, 
He's behind us and He's always on our side. Because He is with us we do not need to fear. 
Our God is always near. It's a really encouraging and uplifting song expectantly for a fearful soul. 

                                           I do not own this song and I have no right to it. I got it off of youtube.

So remember these words as you go through your day and when 
problems arise allowing you to become fearful. Our God is with us.....always!

Your sister in Christ,
Amber :)

Parents

Got from google search.

Parents have such an extraordinary role to play. They are our examples in life. They teach us right from wrong. They lovingly guide us and and correct our mistakes. Through them we see the world. They pray for us and our future. They pray for God's will in our life. They love us for who we are.
I am so thankful that God choose to give us parents. Someone to learn from, someone to be loved by, someone to cherish. To learn the meaning of love from.

I understand, though, the children who do not have those type of parents. I know. See I have a very good mother whose love for Christ is so seen and lived out in her life but I haven't had a father who shares that relationship with Jesus. His heart is concerned about worldly things. And because of the man he has become my parents relationship is resulting in a divorce. A very horrible and long process. Something my mom and I didn't want! But we see God's hand through all of this. I know God is not for divorces but neither are we! In this case we know it is best, for my father is the abusive type. It is protecting us.Through prayer and relaying on Jesus we are getting through it. God has been good to us as we turn to him. So in saying this I do understand those who don't have good christian parents. My heart goes out to them. I hope that even though your life may have issue's because of who your parents are, you wouldn't let it ruin you. Turn to God because He can heal and fix all things! So if you are one of those, just like me, hang on to that!

Via google search

 Even so, having the issue's we've had it is my hearts desire to be that type of mother some day. Shaping my children through hands of love. Being the mother God has created me to be. Molding my children to become servants of God. Giving all they are to their heavenly Father resulting to live their life for Him. To teach them that they are loved and precious in God's eyes. To be examples to Christ.

via google search

When I see parents as those it encourages me and inspires me let God have my life completely and fill me up so I am not me but a mere image of Him. So that I can be the best mom to my children, imaging Christ and Christ alone.

Musical Mondays

I apologize, I haven't been doing my weekly musical Mondays. I hope to keep up with it a lot better.
 
In saying so the song for today is Tenth Avenue North- The Struggle. This song is about us struggling but being thankful that we aren't struggling to be free. It encourages us to realize that Christ died for this freedom and reminds us to let our chains fall of- we are free! So listen to it and remember the freedom we have because of Christ and even though we struggle we an't struggling to be free. :)

I do not own this song. I got it from youtube. 

Here are the lyrics http://www.lyricsfreak.com/t/tenth+avenue+north/the+struggle_21020179.html 

Have a wonderful day! Be encouraged in Christ!
Your sister in Christ,
